Regularization process inconsistent with Cabinet Order Discrimination with Jammu Rehbar-i-Zirat 4/7/2014 11:40:34 PM Early Times Report JAMMU, Apr 7: There are 2624 Rehbar-i-Zirats in Jammu & Kashmir who are to be regularized in three phases. 1495 are from Jammu division and 1029 from Kashmir division. These positions are of divisional cadre. Kashmiri Rehbar-i-Zirats cannot be transferred to Jammu. Similarly, the Rehbar-i-Zirats working in Jammu province cannot be transferred to Kashmir. It was on August 4, 2011 that the state cabinet decided to regularize these Rehbar-i-Zirats. As per the cabinet decision No. 139/18/2011, dated August 4, 2011 and government order No. 235-Agri of 2011, dated August 10, 2011, the regularization was to be done in three phases. The order said that in the first phase 881 candidates will be regularized in April 2014, 881 in the second phase in April 2015 and 880 candidates in the third phase in April 2016. Since all these posts are of divisional cadre, the government should have regularized an equal number of Rehbar-i-Zirats in each division each year. In other words, 498 Rehbar-i-Zirats from Jammu division should have been regularized in each phase and 343 Rehbar-i-Zirats in the Kashmir division should have been regularized in each phase. But it has not happened. What had happened is to the contrary. The Agriculture Production Department (APD) has decided to divide it on 50-50 basis, which means out of 880, 440 Rehbar-i-Zirats from Jammu division and 440 from Kashmir each will be regularized in the first and second phases. In other words, the APD will regularize 85 per cent Rehbar-i-Zirats from Kashmir division in the first and second phases and only 58 per cent from Jammu division. The ratio should have been 58 per cent in Jammu division and 42 per cent in Kashmir division. To be more precise, the APD should have implemented the cabinet decision in letter and sprit and regularized 498 Rehbar-i-Zirats each in the first, second and third phase from Jammu division and 343 Rehbar-i-Zirats each in the first, second and third phases from Kashmir division. That the concerned authorities have decided to perpetrate injustice on the Jammu Rehbar-i-Zirats could be seen from the fact that while the number of those from Jammu to be regularized in the third phase would be 650, the number of their Kashmiri counterparts would be around 140. This is a gross discrimination. The authorities would do well to review their irrational and anti-Jammu decision so that the possibility of confrontation between the Jammu youth and the authorities is averted.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
